Hoops Recruiting Notebook: Three to watch

As far as we know, Iowa State is done with its basketball recruiting class of 2011.

Mid-January is now approaching and it is time to start thinking about 2012.

Don’t be surprise if one or more New York City prospects join Tavon Sledge (2011 signee, also from NYC) in 2012, as this is quickly become a recruiting hotbed for Iowa State. Here are three Big Apple hoopsters to keep an eye on throughout the winter months.

Dingle, Okoro’s teammate at St. Raymond’s Prep, has an impressive offer sheet that features Iowa State.

IN-STATE UPDATE

- Linn-Mar point guard Marcus Paige is currently averaging 15.3 points per game. Paige recently added offers from North Carolina and UCLA to his already large list that includes Iowa State.

- Former Cyclone commit Wesley Staten is averaging 20.3 points per game for Sioux City Bishop Heelan. Staten's Rivals profile lists Iowa State as his only offer but he'll have plenty of options when this summer rolls around.
